    Imagine not using Hannah Montana Linux. I literally can’t do it. Why would you use anything else when all the other distros are so inferior?

    I feel called out, “I use Bazzite btw” is literally a joke I made irl last week.

    Some Bazzite users touch grass and talk to people IRL, surprising, I know.

    Guy came into my workplace this week and I was saying I was slowly getting into developing a game engine with SDL. When he heard I was using ubuntu he recommended Bazzite, saying he has no trouble with it and uses his machine mostly for gaming. Is it Debian based or something else? At least it’s not that meme distro Arch I guess, might try it

      It’s Fedora based. If you want to develop on it, it supports containerized workflows. There’s a DX version explicitly designed for developers.

    Agreed! Skim my post history. I’m in the meme.

    And it’s because I’m so happy I have a plug n play version of Linux that I don’t have to troubleshoot. It’s more stable than W11 on my work computer. I love it so much. I could throw it on my grandmas computer and she would be fine. I’d recommend it over Mint for new Linux users.

    I wouldn’t recommend it for people who love using the command line or run virtual machines.

    I don’t use Linux yet but when I do change it will be Bazzite btw. (I have an Nvidia graphics card and from the little research I did, Bazzite seems to be a good distro for Linux gaming)

      Generally I think immutable distros are the best entry-level distros for newcomers. Stops people from accidentally bricking their system.

      Why?

      Not judging or anything. Just curious why it’s your go-to. Mine’s either “Ubuntu” or “try several live distros, see what you like the feel of before installing one”.

        I would never recommend Ububtu to anyone. Canonical cannot be trusted and Snaps are a plague on Linux. They care more about their own control than the needs of users.

        But why Bazzite?

        • Being atomic makes it hard to break.
        • KDE Plasma is familiar to Windows users, and familiarity is important when making the jump.
        • It installs fast and, being based on Fedora, has excellent hardware support with no fuss.
        • It comes with gaming software preinstalled and ready-to-go.
        • It’s Flatpak-native, so finding, installing, and maintining software is safe and easy.

        It lets new users get back to their lives without having to learn much of anything. If users get more advanced and need to go non-atomic, I recommend graduating to Fedora KDE. It stays familiar but gives more control.

        From there, a Linux pilgrim has all the tools and experience they need to make their Linux journey their own.

    No issues gaming on Mint! Tried bazzite couldn’t get into it. Just doesn’t feel usable daily and to game. Mint is just too polished and convenient.

    I’m glad all of you are using various Linux distros and I’m glad there is so much choice within this community. Keep it up!
